Good Morning everyone, I would like to apologize for any formatting errors as I'm typing from my Phone. After being with this community for a bit, I saw that it has, from a User's perspective, a infrastructure in place that not many servers have had. Lately from the observations that I have seen, like all other sister servers. That the player count has dropped, this being made evident by the community announcements urging for the player count to be brought to 60-80, while others run 130 players on a good weekend. I believe that, there are servers that have been misused in the sense of potential revenue for the community, for example, the Zombie Survival Server. I believe that I understand the thought process, but I believe that the vision to be misguided, to no ones fault. As you all know, or atleast most of us know, Halo Infinite will be releasing possibly next year, and the MCC will be releasing "when its ready" on PC. Now you may be asking yourself why I mention this, I wholefully believe that this is a good potential Avenue for both profit and community growth if we open a HaloRP Server. Now, my vision would place the Server in a sense of.... TDM Roleplay, similar to which the SCP RP Server is based on. And I would even argue that the server be placed in the SeriousRP category. Or a Semi-Serious Category with Serious RP regiments. How would this work? Simple, well, not so simple, but it will be easy to understand. The Server would be placed in the timeline that coexists with the Fall of Reach Timeline or possibly, Halo 1-2 Timeline where the Covenant and Humans were in brutal conflict but the Covenant weren't easily blasting the UNSC. I also believe that this allows for the most regiments and donation positions possible as at this time, New tech was being discovered and the Spartan 3's have had field experience along with ONI research towards the Spartan 4 program, albeit, this wasnt until around post Halo 3. This is a suggestion that is in it's Alpha Stage afterall. As stated before, It would work as most Roleplay Servers fall under the problem of, unless there's Event Mods, most of the time, People are standing around doing nothing, introducing 2 factions, The Covenant and the UNSC would open up the avenue of things to do with little Event Team intervention, possibly just XP rewards for King of the Hill and such on the Home Map. Now financially speaking, The Zombie Server can be reused for the HaloRP server so it wouldn't be too draining on GamingLights funds, also, I believe that the avenue of donation options for this are pretty wide and could allow for more income. Note, That I do not believe that we would be making money off any resources used. But for the spot of using that oppurtunity, similar to how many players pay to play as Obi Wan Kenobi on Starwars RP Servers. I only ask that if this were to come to serious thought with the SMT, That I be included in the planning process, I of course will go on record to state that I do not want compensation or recognition if it becames a profitable success. This is purely for the possible enjoyment of the Gaming Light Community. I only have a minor request of the SMT if this discussed further. I am always available to speak in Discord or Teamspeak when I am home, but anyone may reach me on Discord. Thank you for reading and I hope you consider the Benefits. - MTF E11 VCMDR Tick 106S
